This is for my MALA Capstone Project at MTSU. All answers are confidential, and only first names will be used. The intent of this project is to honor Aurelia and Gheorghe Gheletca, and the sacrifices they made to create a better lives for their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.

I am researching 1.5 Generation (those born in Romania, but that came here as a child), and 2nd Generation immigrants (those who were born here). The intent of these questions is to see if any patterns or consistencies emerge, and if so, what are they. As part of this research I intend to allow what I learn through this interview process to guide my further research.

All participants will be invited to the presentation at MTSU, that date will be announced at a later time.
